Jessica Simpson: 'I don't have anything to prove'
Simpson will be featured on the cover of the magazine with air-dried hair, no makeup and no retouching. "I don't have anything to prove anymore,” she told Marie Claire. “What other people think of me is not my business." And while the Internet is abuzz with people praising her for the shoot, others are having a hard time believing there was no makeup or retouching involved. Last year, Kim Kardashian appeared on the un-retouched cover of Life & Style in a bikini beside the quote, “I have cellulite, so what!”
About seven months later, the reality TV star underwent a “makeunder” for a Glamour magazine photo shoot, but wasn’t sans makeup, entirely. Will the au naturel cover trend stick? What do you think of Simpson’s natural look?

If you haven’t tuned in to “The Price of Beauty” on VH1, Jessica Simpson’s Marie Claire photo shoot, for the magazine’s May issue, will give you an illustrative synopsis.
“This is the real me,” Kardashian told Life & Style. “I love my body. You should love yours, too.”
Ok she's a nice looking young lady, but without me being there to see the pictures taken and to see that there were no photo touch ups being done..I just don't believe any magazine prints untouched photos..
You go girl.... show them what they "Don't Have"
Good For You !
I used to think Jessica was just another dumb blonde, but after listening to her talk [for the first time] about this project and later on David Letterman, I realized that I was completely wrong. She is a very intelligent, sensitive, and beautiful young woman, with or without makeup!
OMJ, She is much hotter sans makeup. She looks a lot more intelligent and approachable. I'd hit on that.
She is a stunner with or without alot of makeup. I prefer without. Hope she starts a trend.
Anyone know how to insert a "Moo" sound byte??
Pay close attention ladies: 15+ pounds added = HEAD FOR HILLS. True for Jessica, and most likely for you too. Once you learn THAT, we'll all be better off.....
not the same girl in pic 2.
She's never looked better.
Simply beautiful...both with or without makeup. But I prefer her all natural look.
DONT CARE DONT CARE DID I SAY I DONT CARE
Your so right.....its just don't matter......its all for $$$$$ for the magazine.
What's the big deal? She was without makeup all the time on that reality show she did with Nick Lachey.
I'd love to bend her over , with or without make up.
I'd Still Hit It
And why again is this newsworthy???
I think she is gorgeous.
Oh my goodness, i couldn't believe this when I saw it. Even without makeup she looks beautiful. She's right, she has nothing to hide.
good for Jessica – she seems to be doing well
http://www.sency.com/jessica-simpson.htm
With or without makeup, she is dumb
Several of those posting here suggest that women in general should not wear makeup (harms the skin, looks fake, etc.) While i'm not a fan of heavy makeup on women, i think that on most women, SOME make up, properly and sparingly applied is needed.
Face it. We're used to seeing women made up. If you were to remove all makeup from all women overnight, it would be a pretty boring sight. All women need makeup to make their good features look better, and to hide their bad features. Not all women are born beautiful and stay beautiful all their lives. They need makeup. But it must be used sparingly and it must be applied correctly.
I think she looks great. Jessica, rock your style, I dig it.
She is nothing special. But more importantly, why is she famous? I don't get these kinds of things I guess. There are so many more people who go unoticed for the great things they accomplish for society. She isn't one of them, and not wearing makeup isn't one of them either, who cares...
She looks gorgeous without any make up. I can't believe she wears any at all ever looking that good.
she had no talent, now she has no make-up. What's next, no clothes? Probably! She's just bored and needs some attention I guess. I wish she would stop shaving her legs, plucking her eyebrows or shaving her armpits. Now that's takes balls! But I'm sure she'll never do that, cause she's a fraud. A bored fraud. Later.
good for her (i hope it's real), but i'm 26 and have never worn makeup a day in my life, and i'm still cute!! maybe i should be on the next cover
Not a bad looking babe, with or without makeup. Now if she only had a brain....
Jessica is a beautiful young woman who needs no makeup at all..She ia a flawless beauty. Simply put, she is a classic
I would love to bareback her.
I wanna lick her crotch so bad!!!!
It DOES look like she might have just a touch of makeup on, referring to the top photo....maybe some lipgloss with a touch of color. Regardless, she looks fantastic in both photos......with or without any makeup on.
You go, girl!!
Jessica Blimpson
I think it's great to present women with a natural look, that's how it should be. Only thing is that Jessica isn't pretty at all so she covers it with make up to look better, so ...bottom line ...great idea ...Jessica ...not really ...
Jessica looks much better "au naturel" in my opinion, as most women do. Makeup is BS, and pretty much unnecessary.
jessica muito linda
I don't care one way or the other. People who spend their time celebrity-culting like this need to seriously get a life.
I don't see it. What's all the fuss for? She's average at best.
SHE IS GORGEOUS. looks better without all that makeup!
She absolutely has makeup on that cover.
She does look way cuter in the 2nd pic though.
woof!!!!!! somebody call the fasion police!!!!! no wait, the fasion swat team!!!! tell them to open fire at will!!!!!! baaahahahaha!!!!!!
She looks better without makeup, andsure you have... Eric Hill, or whatever your real name is.
She looks lovely. I'm proud of her.
I and everyone else in H wood has hit that, I love these naive comments "shes naturally beautiful" true enough but if you knew her like I do, and if by chance somone brings is to your attention jess, well you know who!!
looks very good
In the top picture Jessica looks like Elisabeth Shue. Today is 4/11/10 and I am quitting drinking (for the worlds 411). I am so clever. In 1 year it will be 4/11/1. Two much information? God I crack myself up.
I think all women are more beautiful without makeup. Jessica is no exception. I believe the sans makeup picture is 100x more beautiful than the other one.
For non-believers: She braided her hair, then let it air dry to get the curly look.
Gorgeous! It's just too bad that those who choose to be confident and focus on inner beauty are so far and few between, that they are praised. It should just be the norm.
I am among the people who would have criticized Jessica several years ago for being vapid- but I have a new found respect for her, and she truly is beautiful- I think more beautiful w/o piles of makeup and with a few extra pounds
How can you mention a wanna be like kardashian in the same breath as jessica simpson is beyond me.. please dont try to classify a striking beauty like jessica with a dime store beauty like kardashian.. they are not in the same league.
Jessica is one of those rare beauties that comes along every hundred years or so.. She is simply very beautiful.
She is an attractive woman who has a "woman's figure" I am so tired of models who have the body of a pre-teen being displayed as the perfect woman. Just like men have different body types so do we women. The Fact that fashion designers seem to design just for the "model" body is an example that they can't handle "Real Women". For a size 14 model to be considered Plus sized shows the dichotomy in fashion.
Also our skin needs of be natural in order it to breath, I am a woman of nearly 60 and because of the fact that I rarely ware make up I have the skin of a forty plus woman.
While Kim Kardashian and Jessica Simpson still look good without airbrushing and makeup, not all women do. This "love your body" thing can easily be taken to an extreme, too. I for one am sick and tired of obese women referring to themselves as "curvy". If you're built like the Michelin Man, and your waist isn't noticeably slimmer than your hips and bust, you're just fat, and you need to do some sit-ups.
They obviously have to put make up on her for the cover of a magazine... she has a natural look to her, but they have to retouch and put at least a little make up on because, seriously, it is a Marie Claire magainze, and it is the front cover.. but she looks beautiful with or without makeup. The second photo looks more natural.. and even if she does have on a little makeup, who cares? Our society has come to the point where "natural" to most of us means "Made up to look natural".. even if Jess isn't the sharpest tool in the shed, she is beautiful with any look! At least she has it in her to be put on the cover of a magazine looking completely different from her every day self! A lot of women can't say the same..
Every time a celebrity supposedly has "no makeup" on, in fact, they do have just a little. A little bit of undereye makeup to cover up any hint of dark circles makes a person look "natural". What they mean by no makeup is that they are not applying the base makeup to the entire face. The base makeup gives a "one color" look to the entire face, and provides a base for the blush and bronzer to cling to, for industry standards in film and on the stage.
She's beautiful, but she is proving something. She wants to prove to the public that she is a natural beauty, and she is. The fact that she made a fool of herself in her reality series, when she was with her first husband, will never be erased. She's not smart, she's just pretty, and pretty is a good thing, too.
I always thought she looked sooooo fake. Looking at her without the makeup on, I am in awe of her beauty.
(Confidence + Beauty ) = Jessica Simpson. She has really matured and grown up.
First of all, "Who Cares?". Second, I simply can't believe the number of comments.
The woman is gorgeous, clean up nicely, and obliviously courageous. Now, if she's as pleasant as people as say and can laugh at herself, I'm not sure I see the down side!
wow. Marry me? I like her better without makeup.
Who is Jessica Simpson? Please tell me she is not another in a long line of "American Idol" children who represent themselves to be musically talented!
Jessica looks good, in fact even better without makeup.
I've seem other (Madonna, Cher...) plain awful, Jessica
for all her faults is still a beautiful young woman.
Eeeewww. I don't wait in line to look at Dorothea Lange shots. I want glamour, pouty lips, hot bods. Save the self-esteem issues for the couch.
Don't care if you've got cellulite? Then stay off the cover!
Mandi / Girly girl...........don't hate !! Participate !!.......roflmao
I've always thought she is beautiful. No makeup doesn't change that. Of course, the spectacular rack doesn't hurt either ...
yay for Jessica Simpson!!! About time people start being real.
She looks good naturally. Makeup and hairstyling makes her look a lot better. some women use makeup like a security blanket (remember Tammy Faye?). I suppose this will get a few of them to come out from under the shell.
Jessica is a beautiful young woman. When she appeared on Letterman a few weeks back, she looked fabulous. Jessica basically shrugged her shoulders at those naysayers tsk tsking about those few pounds she put on last year. Maybe that will send a signal out to young starlets that you don't have to look like a hockey stick with hair to be successful.
With or without makeup, Jessica Simpson is a true beauty.
I actually think she looks better without the makeup. She's a natural beauty and I appreciate that she is a real woman with real curves.
i wish we would all stop defining people by their looks. i'm just saying. it bothers me. there is so much more to a soul. yippee no makeup wow. lets make her the cover story. with the world as it is, come back to me with a real story.
Vanity and insecurity is rampid in Hollywood. Appearing on a magazine cover makeup free and untouched took some serious guts. WTG Jessica!
I love she did this! She's more beautiful than ever and an amazing role model! Thank you jessica
I never really cared for you her until she started this series on real beauty. I'm impressed that she did this make-up less shoot and I hope the trend continues, because we are all flawed but still beautiful.
Great lightning, great photographer. She looks wonderful.
Apparently all the naysayers skipped over the part where she said:
"I don't have anything to prove anymore,” she told Marie Claire. “What other people think of me is not my business."
That means ... SHE DOESN'T CARE IF YA'LL BELIEVE IF SHE ISN'T WEARING ANY MAKE UP!!
Sheeeeeeeeeeesh!
Maybe she has stopped pleasing her parents and thinking a little on her own. She is a beautiful AMERICAN girl and one we should be proud to call one of us.
I'm glad Jessica is finally ignoring comments from other's that are jealous of her beauty and and success.
I had the opportunity to see Jessica in person at an airport in Mexico several years ago and she was then and is still a very beautiful person. You go Jessica you should be proud of what god gave you.
millions of women do this everyday so what if Jessica does
I love the new cover. She's more beautiful than i have ever seen her before.
Who's Jessica Simpson? Is she important?
She's like a narcotic with or without makeup...
Jessica Simpson – You go girl! You are gorgeous.
I think she's prettier au naturale then with makeup!
It's a bit weird, because i can't seem to recognize her in the second pic, maybe it's the hair on her face like that. I do think she is pretty! I don't understand why some people complain about how smart she is or not because the blog is about her looks!!! She does seem to have some make up on the first pic but they tried to make it look as natural as possible!!
She looks like a fat slob – how low can the blimp go hehehehe
"What do you think of Simpson’s natural look?"
I think that CNN should stop pretending to be a "news" organization. Seriously? Jessica Simpson without makeup? Way to set the bar low, guys.
WOW !!!!
I'm so glad she's not related to OJ
Women don't kid yourself, you look much better with makeup, it's just the plain truth. Most of you don't look as good as her with makeup on and her natural.
its about time, jessica simpson is one of the sweetest best starlets in my lifetime. she looks stunningly beautiful totally natural. i love that she is doing this becaues maybe more of the beautiful women of the world will realize being a toothpick slathered in makeup and 10,000 dollar outfits isnt beauty. jessica, call me! ill cook you dinner any day!
How does this help women's body image? She looks great with no make-up! The reason women feel compelled to wear make-up is to look as good as Jessica Simpson does without make-up.
To better help women's body image, would it not be better to put only an average woman (without make-up) on the cover, as opposed to an extraordinarily beautiful one without make-up?
In the first photo you can see she is wearing light makeup. The second photo is the natural one. In either one though she looks great. One more thing does anyone on this site know Jessica Simpson. I like the way people love to bash her she seems like a nice person.
I saw the magazine cover up close. She DOES look great without makeup. However, she is wearing eyeliner and lip gloss on the magazine cover. Why didn't she just go without that on the cover?
Democracy in action. I wonder what the KGB makes of all this hard-headed realism and love of the truth
Just another version of herself. Both are beautiful.
She looks INCREDIBLE. Stay with it Jessica – you're SMOKING HOT without any makeup!!
Jessica seems more like a down to earth person. She doesn't worry about all the glitz and glamour.
Awesome!! This will really give some girls a confidence boost
Jessica looks even more beautiful!!!
More Hollywood, Modeling and Music Industry "women" should follow suit. Young women all over this country and abroad should be shown that "REAL" women are the stars... not their "touched up" dopplegangers.
As smart as women are, smarter then their male counterparts, many women still measure their beauty based on men's perceptions, and not their own.
Guess what, "WOMEN OF THE WORLD" ... when we finally grow up, the beauty we appreciate is the one that is natural – as in "REAL!"
beautiful!
Jessica Simpson is stunningly beautiful either with or without make-up!
Jessica is an amazing roll model for girls out there.Weather they're making fun of her weight or looks for tabloid fodder, she keeps her head up with a smile.
Still gorgeous.. she takes my breath away..
Whether she has a little make up on or not, this look is 10x better than her usual look. I'm wondering what has driven her to put on the heavy makeup for all these years.
Honestly, this is true of all women – less is always more.
She should concentrate on getting a brain transplant....she should also learn to get by on her merits instead of just her looks or nothing will last for her...another example of how far backwards woman have gone.
I have only one word OUTSTANDING!!
She lookes like Tony Romo rode her hard and put her away wet too many times
Until she decides to adopt some kids, I will always prefer Jessica Alba.
This is seriously the first time I have ever been impressed with Jessica Simpson. I think that this is awesome!
She looks great!
The kind of money she makes the least she can do is get done up. She really does not have any real talent all she has is a look when she is made up.
She is just a low self esteem bleach blonde. Come on people, there is nothing real about this person
She looks so much younger not made up.
Personally, I think every woman is more attractive without a bunch of crap on their face.
Never seen her look more beautiful, very soft and feminine.
MANDI
GO BACK AND READ YOUR STATEMENT ABOUT USING MAKE-UP TO LOOK "MORE NATURAL" AND LOOK UP THE WORD NATURAL IN THE DICTIONARY. NATURAL IS LIKE A NEW BORN BABY.
NO MAKE-UP, NO SILICANE BOOBS, NO BUTT INPLANTS, TUMMY TUCKS, NO BOTOX INJECTIONS ETC.
I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU UNDERSTAND THE MEANING OF THE WORD NATURAL.
TRY TO REMEMBER THESE WORDS BY PLATO
A wiseman speaks because he HAS something to say
The foolish man speaks because he THINKS he have to say something..
HEY CNN MORONS - IT'S AU NATUREL, NOT AU NATURALE.
"naturale" isn't even a French word. Who on Earth do you recruit? It's pathetic.
I think Jessica looks much more beautiful without makeup ~ her natural look is amazingly down to earth yet appealing. I give her a LOT of credit in this day and age to go public without any make up on. Kudos to Jessica Simpson....
I believe she was deeply influenced by the "beauty" project she did. I'm impressed with and believe her growth.
C'mon, why do they say she wears no wake up on the cover, that's baloney. Mandi and others who pointed that out are right. She has her eye makeup, and her face is all made up just with more natural colors. She also has either spray tan (which is as effective as makeup) or the picture has been colored (retouched). I agree that the second picture is natural but she looks much worse. The shape of her eyes is different (although she tried to cover it with flying hair). I'm not saying she is not pretty but there is no point lying when it is obvious the magazine is lying if they claim her picture on the cover shows her without makeup.
Yummmm......
Free Saturday night – you know my e-mail
take Care
Hey, she ain't nekkid!!! False advertising. I spent 25 minutes of my life reading all this drivel and still cant figure out why everyone's piling on Mandi. How do YOU know she's fat or ugly or whatever. Lighten up people. A lot of you should go find something else to do, blogging is not your forte. CT
I'd hit it. In the non-domestic abuse sorta way, I mean.
She is a beautiful girl but come on.....breast enhancements, hair coloring, tanning, facials.....whats natural?
As many if not most of the previous posters have stated, Jessica is incredible looking as she is ; no makeup necessary. Which is how I also feel about most women in my life or that I meet on the street.
This whole comparison 'thing' can be charged to the 'media' including this web site for propagating such BS propaganda as relates to what is most important in life.
I hope she is simply happy and places 'zines like these in their proper file folder : the recycle bin.
Prove you can lose that belly, baby.
She's gorgeous with or without. In fact she's even more gorgeous au naturel. I'm easily old enough to be her dad but I still think she's one of the most beautiful women in the entertainment world and gets even more beautiful as she gets older. Wow!
I think it's good to see our stars as they are every once in a while, reminds us what real is.
I think too much was to to make her look unkempt for this photo. You can be unmade and still have your hair brushed.
She is absolutely gorgeous, made up or natural.
Those milkbags are always on.
Yummy.
Shes a doll any way you look at it.
Gorgeous!
Still pretty, but doesn't look like a Barbie doll without makeup. Good for her, and let's hope that others follow.
I love both pictures, they are so beautiful...just like Jessica...now that is REAL BEAUTY! Love you Jessica:>
Two words to discribe Ms Simpson- YUM MEE
I'd still hit it.
She is she. She is beautiful because of her self confidence, because of her genetics, and because she is a woman and woman are beautiful. She is she. Hopefully she can remain happy in her skin.
A really beautiful human female. As opposed to the fantasy droid creature she is usually portrayed to be.
aw, come on...i would include the hair also as letting be more natural.
Can we be sure the teeth haven't been "doctored"? Regardless, a beautiful woman.
She is beautiful! I hope this trend sticks. Tired of "prefection" overload everywhere. I am all for natural looks.
"Good person"?? Hardly! You reap what you sow! She is a product of her creepy father, hardly anything to be proud of, neither of the girls! Strange, weird, ODD, that's more accurate!
To Don Elliott, Dianne, all the rest of the haters-
You guys read my first comment where all I did was question whether or not she was really wearing makeup. You can disagree, but you're wrong. She is wearing makeup in both photos. I didn't say her LASHES were dark, I said her lash LINE was dark. Her actual skin. So if the skin of her bottom eye is naturally black and only goes halfway across... then she may want to see a doctor. The makeup she's wearing is very minimal, yes. And I even stated there was NOTHING WRONG with that. In fact, in the rest of my comments, I go on to blame the MAGAZINE for making the claim that she's not wearing any makeup. They should have said nothing and let her beauty speak for itself. IF you had read on, you would've seen that I praised her for her beauty time and time again (with or without makeup). So... what we have here is you guys attacking me and saying negative things about me based on nothing. Gee... if I weren't such a "pinhead," I would think you had all done the exact thing you were criticzing me for doing. Interesting.
Does anybody else think the bottom pic makes her look like Jennifer Jason Leigh?
Very pretty girl, too bad she's dumber than a box o' rocks.........
Here's hoping this starts a trend. It's only my opinion, but nothing is more beautiful than a natural woman. All those layers of makeup and other crud just get in the way. I know a lot of guys who think a woman looks better in comfy PJ's or sweats around the house than decked out for a night on the town.
A true Texas beauty! Way to go, Jessica!
i'd hit it.
If those are some of the pictures that are going in the shoot, I think she is gorgeous. I dont think she is as dumb as she let on when she had her own show. Any man that is lucky enough to end up with her is by far a lucky man! Not only that, I think a woman without all the makeup is by far prettier than one with a bunch caked on. I would rather see the true beauty than the painted beauty.
A freaking gorgeous Texas Lady! With or WITHOUT makeup! AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL!
I'm not an advocate of make-up. I prefer none or little. Miss Jessica is a beautiful young woman. Peace out.
She is so much more beautiful without make-up. But that is true of just about every woman....
She is so yummy...I want to taste those pouty lips...
Beautiful and brave! You have nothing to hide and look amazing. Your inner beauty shines thru and no amount of paint and powder could give you that!!! You go girl!!!! You ROCK!!!!
I would do her and make my wife watch.. Scrumdidlyumshus..
Beautiful!
She doesent care what people think of her pretend people usually dont they are self absorbed in pretend life
She looks great (very, very beautiful in fact), but leaving the makeup behind doesn't change the fact that she's as dumb as a rock.
Wow. That really is about the best and hottest she's ever looked in print. I take back anything I ever said about her being a totally fabricated hollywood beauty. Truly impressed!
i agree with ballz above.
he would "hit it!"
she is really fat , this is unhealthy and she should be ashamed for promoting obesity. Young girls who look up to this woman will now think it is o.k. to be frumpy. Shame on you Jessica
When you use to mauch make up every day and you clen it up, still your use look darker or it mark you permantly but i think she is with out make up and is very beautifull
She's holding on tight not to be 300lbs. The next Kirstie Alley.
Beautiful face, just the right amount of curves, totally delish! I would so hit it!
Jessica, if you're reading this, I will ring your chimes or die in the attempt!
That second picture doesnt look like her at all not even the slightest. Are you all sure that is Jessica in the second picture????
It's difficult to work for world peace when I've got a major chub! Maybe a synonym.
YIKES!!!!!!!!
Good for her! It's about time natural beauty comes to the forefront and take center stage. All living creatures are beautiful in their own unique way. If every living creature has to meet the same required level of beauty (whether male, female, or other species), then this world we live in would be like a factory (producing a similar line of looks). We should all embrace the visible and invisible beauties that each one of us possess. With this in mind, maybe world peace can be achieved someday.
The cover shot isn't very good, it's an awkward smile and her hair frames her face all wrong, though it's a look she's had many times before. And she's wearing a little makeup there, there seems to be a little eyeliner and blush and gloss, so the cover just looks amateurish trying to be half of one thing and half another. BUT, that second shot is stunning, very natural, no eyeliner, no forced smile, the hair is tussled and braided and off the face, the eyes are bright and intense, that is easily the best shot of her I've ever seen, and it's clearly not the normal hollywood mountain of makeup. In fact, that shot is so good, if it didn't have her mole and cleft chin, I wouldn't believe I was looking at Jessica Simpson.
I think Jessica is beautiful with out any make up on. She is a role model and she is setting a wonderful example for all the other young girls out there. I will be purchasing the issue to read the article! You go girl!
Jessica is as beautiful as she has ever been although alittle heavier. Heck most of us are. If she is happy with herself that's all that matters.
wow she is beautiful,it goes to show that she dosen't
need all that CRAP......
All women should dare to post a make up/photoshop free picture!
this au naturel should be her new look
Im not fat,
Stop trying to defend someone that really doesnt give a crap about you fatty. And I dont need attention from men. I have a man that I love
.
Please get a life sweet heat
Likey, likey!
She figured what to do. No one will pay attention to her hair or make up and that she looks like most of us. The readers will pay attention to her boobs.
She is finally growing up! She has always been a beautiful person even before she made it big.
Yes,very pretty.Now if she could just get in the kitchen and bake me a pie .
I am not a fan but I must say she looks younger, fresher and so much better without all the crap on her face...and thank God she actually ingests food.
Jessica is fine no matter if she farts in the bed and thinks its funny.She could fart in my bed anytime....lol.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Ol' Man.......RIGHT ON DUDE,
The "other" women here only wish they were half as hot! Lord, I would love to run my hands through them fun bags!
Anyone else that complains about her is either a FAT PORKER CHICK or a guy that likes BOYS!!
Truly beautiful without the plaster and paint. Go au naturale ALL the time!!
The second picture is one of the hottest of ANY woman I have ever had the pleasure to gaze upon. Beyond words that can be printed.
Hurt me.
i saw the magazine and she def has eyeliner and lip gloss she is not without any makeup as stated
I think it's great she's posing naturally. All the filthy rich women in this country spend thousands on makeup, hairdos and plastic surgery in order to look way more "perfect" than they actually are, making real woman feel bad. I hope she does more posing in a natural state – truth is always better than lies and we get so many lies from the elite class, when they do something like this, it's a breath of fresh air. Without makeup, she looks the way I would expect her to look – pretty, though not very pretty, and certainly not beautiful. At that, I'll bet she looks better than most wealthy women would look under the same conditions.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> johnG.Sachs
Wow here we go again! Another guy that likes BOYS!! I think your panties are cutting off the circulation around your waist line!
AND what is "many girls" anyway? You puckered star hole fisherman!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> HEY JA,
I bet you get no attention from guys either YOU FAT PORKER!
JESSICA IS BEAUTIFUL NO DOUBT!
It's up to her, really. I think she looks more marketable with make up on, but it sounds like she's trying to make a statement. She'll look better without her face on, than most.
now that i saw her without make up i can tell that she has no special beauty at all.If i saw her passing by i wouldn't turn my head for sure to even give her a glimpse.Believe me i've seen many girls and women au natural and they looked really beautiful,two russian girls and a german one were divine with no make up at all.Again beauty is relative and what is beautiful for me may not be beautiful for you but come on girls what's beautiful is beautiful for everyone and Jessica's face is just so plump and fake even though it has no cover upon it.My advice for all the ladies is use make up and stuff but never overdo it.Make it look as natural and original as possible and pleaseeeee stop copying each other,it doesn't impress anyone!
All you men are so disgusting!!
Its funny how people believe shes a great and wonderful person (Blah blah blah) when they dont know her personally. And to all of you that believe this picture is all NATURAL.. truth is...its NOT. Yeah she looks pretty with less makeup, but whats the big deal!
mandi : My hair dries like that, my hair is naturally wavy
The picture under the marie claire magazine cover is amazing...
Such beauty! Women are have been fooled into thinking that makeup is a better way. Just be yourselves.. why would you want anything else.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Robert Young
Ohhh boy. Here we go with the religion (#&$^@. Dude just stay away from this blog. YOU MUST LIKE BOYS TOO!!!
You FAT PORK BELLY
Simple, we all came into this world with ..NO-Make-Up...so why does anyone? believe that they can improve upon Gods creation?
Jessica is beautiful no matter what she does or wears. She is a wonderful person, and people should give her more respect. I am a long time fan of everything she does and will always support anything she does, makes, wears, or any magazine she is on the cover of! She is an inspiration to young girls, I think it’s great she has found who she really is and I hate that she has gone through all the hard times, but I love her even more for pulling though and being a good example. Keep it up Jess, you are amazing. I would love to meet you one day!!
>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> michael h. hartney
Dude, what planet are you from? You must not like girls right. What a retard you are. I bet you always wanted to go to the girls locker room in school too. If so, I would understand but I think your reason would be more because you are a FAT PORKER THAT LIKES BOYS!
Yup..I thought...when you're career is on the skids and all the acting jobs have dried up...what does a famous person do?? Pose nude. Or so I thought that's what Jessica did.I am impressed that she posed without makeup and her clothes still on. I am NOT a fan of hers...acting or singing wise. But she is sending a strong message to those of us who are middle class and cannot afford personal trainers or hairstylists. She is a beauty within. And she's happy with her body!!
She is very beautiful. She has a great rack. I would totally hit that.
Ive always thought jessica was extremely HOT and this photo shoot proves me even more right. You go , girl!!!!!!!!
She looks better without!
I would not give her a second look with this appearance.
very attractive, I like the no make-up look better.
Bone er like you own er! Get er done!!!
Just wana play with them funbags!
darnel got the best comment on here
Okay, yes, she looks great w/ little-to-no makeup. However... I'm just gonna say it... the majority of women do NOT have the same natural beauty she does, and we apply makeup trying to look how Jessica does WITHOUT it. She's insanely beautiful, just like Jessica Alba, Biel, etc. That's mostly how she has the career she does. It's not like her music would have made her a pop star... look what Susan Boyle had to do to get her career. She's all natural, why aren't the people commenting on here referencing her natural beauty as an example that women are much more attractive un-made-up? Oh, because women like Jessica Simpson are the exception, not the rule. I think the men on here would really regret it if all women really stopped using make-up and styling their hair.
either way those are bigguns o yes. I'd buy that for a dollar
I would bang her like a screen door in a hurricane.
Thanks.
hot hot hot
I can get my hair to fall like that – I have long wavy curls too. It just takes a lot of running your fingers through your hair as it dries. And my daughter has those thick eyelashes that look like makeup. I'd hate to be the kind of person that doesn't believe in anything anymore. Give her a break. She looks great – better than she has in years.
She is trying so hard to make us believe that she doesn't care about what people think about her that it leads me to believe that she's got insecurity issues. Otherwise, why try so hard? If you really don't care then don't bother making tv shows and coming out in magazines talking about it, just do it! She just wants publicity, that's all. Doesn't she realize that it was the cameras that destroyed her marriage? Why keep it going? Get out of the spotlight if you don't care what people think about you. If I pay for a magazine I better see someone who is really trying to look good, not someone trying to prove a point which makes no sense whatsoever.
Her face looks way too big
mandi, she has naturally dark hair, dark eyes and dark eyebrows. She colors her hair. Makes total sense that her lashline would look dark. I think is both brave and beautiful.
Wow, "natural" eye liner.
She looks gorgeous in the second picture. Probably the best picture of her I have seen.
I wasn't even sure it was her at first. She should stick to that look all the time. Much better than when she looks like she spend years on her make up and hair.
I've always loved Jessica's beauty. She's a very pretty girl!
She can at least smile and wear a bra. Is she trying to look like a orphan? Being naturale doesn't mean looking like you woke up in an alley. Isn't it a bit late for that anyways? I'm sure there are things that are fake that you can't take back for a photo shoot.
I do like her though! She's cool...
she's still a beauty.
>>>>>>>>>...Kay
Thank you. I am still LMAO too! And MANDI is still a FAT PORKER ROLLING IN DONUTS, BAGELS and Cream Cheese!!!
>>>>>>>>>>>...MANDI I would have busted on you anyway. YOU FAT PORKER!!
Put that burger down and feed the homeless! LMAO
She does not have dark brown hair. Her natural color is dark blonde/light brown. And Ashlee's natural color is medium blonde.
yeah the real Jessica via airbrushing and photoshop. Don't get me wrong she is a natural beauty but anyone will look great natural with a little airbrushing and fancy photography. On another note; I do like how she has put on weight and looks like an actual woman... she is prettier now than she ever has been.
i actually prefer her looking like this... she looks so much younger!
both pictures are beautiful, but is it really her in the second one???
too many differences.. the mouth, the eyes, and the boobs are way bigger
Jessica Simpson has never been a 'Beautiful' woman. She is known for her ignorance and big breasts. She just looks like an everyday woman in her new picture, not the super model, exotic beauty all of us average women look up to. So yeah, here is Jessica Simpson, average woman, not a celebrity.
CECE it's obvious you're an angry individual that probably hates who she is. It's also obvious you're not an American.
What world do you live in to say our women are " loose, stupid and worthless". American women are beautiful and of all races, colors and sizes. They're not just "white".
Ignorance is going to be your downfall....
Much prefer the natural look.
Are you all so naive in believing her? FAKE!!!!!!!!
HAWT!!
I think she is beutifull and all the BS she encounters is from jealous women who wish they where half what she is, and from guys who wish they can be with her but don't have a chance in hell.......
No make up BUT a complete DYE job on her dark brown hair. Hm.....hypocracy and stupidity. What a Bimbo recipe for disaster.
A failing singing career. A ignoramous stint in Tibet and a show that failed to acquire any ratings. Show skin! That's the last ditch effort to fill up a bank account. She is NOT a role model, simply a glorified BIMBO. And to the poor Asian woman whose singing career ended because of chemical abuse on her face (she wanted a whiter face), our American BIMBO taps her on the shoulder and says, "it's ok. Everything will be ok." (paraphrasing). It's no wonder the world looks at American women as loose, stupid and worthless. Palen in one corner glaringly lacking in political know how and Jessica at the other end, a complete embarrassment. MONEY does not equate success. Just ask any drug lord or high class call girl.
Gross. I never thought she was attractive.
“What other people think of me is not my business."
Um...aren't you in the entertainment business Jessica? Modeling on the cover of fashion magazines IS absolutely your business. Starring in glamorous movies & television shows IS your business. Like it or not what people think of you IS your ONLY business. This reminds me of when Charles Barkley exclaimed "I am not a role model". Well, um, yes you are whether or not you like it.
That being said, I think Jessica looks MUCH better without the usual overdone "trailer-trash" makeup job she usually sports.
Skip the makeup woman you look just fine without it.
Ok... let's just take a look at this picture.
She clearly has makeup on.
Furthermore, there's hair all over her face.
Double fail.
Rumor has it that beauty is more than skin deep. Unfortunately, they have not made makeup that will hide a low IQ.
Bravo, Jessica; in todays world of superficial beauty at any cost, you showed a lot of courage and maturity.
You might expect this from older actresses who truly have nothing to prove (Meryl Streep, Susan Sarandon, etc.) but not someone as young as Jessica (who's career isn't exactly airborne).
Finally, you look absolutely beautiful!
Jessica is absolutely gorgeous sans makeup. You go Jess! You are a natural beauty, screw the haters.
My wife,Joy, is absolutely gorgeous when she wakes up. I try and tell her how beautiful she is without makeup but she is certain she needs it to be "acceptable" in public. Women need to realize not all men are shallow and god made them beautiful naturally. Unfortunetely our society brainwashes people (especially women) into thinking you must meet certain standards. Not mine. Be Yourself!!! Know your important!
Well, I for one don't think the person in either picture is the same one. Yet, strangely enough, I love both, nice breast line, nice shape to her face and eyes. Something must really be wrong with the men she has been with, or she is very damaged. I'd keep her warm and snuggly. PEACE
I'd like to yabba-dabba-do her in the BUTT! Shhhhh, don't tell Wilma.
Ballz is a PIG!
Jessica fell under the spell of Hollywood, that's all. She has come a long way getting to know herself. Jessica is natural beauty. Congratulations!
Wow haters! she looks great! i am not a fan of her singing or acting but she's lovely without makeup. she's still young enough to pull that off – i wish i was. good for her! i hope other young ladies will look at her confidence and seek to copy that confidence!
She looks beautiful. Stay true to yourself. Don't fall into the ridiculous, materialistic, inane and superficial trappings of our society.
She looks better and younger without any makeup. Way to go Jessica!
I think she looks beautiful sans makeup. There are a huge number of women in this world who spend 1/2 their lives making themselves up when they don't need it. Granted there are some who benefit from makeup, but like my wife, most don't need it. Several months after my wife and I met I saw her without her makeup(much to her initial chagrin), and I fell in love with her all over again...and she hasn't worn any since. Thanks to great genetics, she probably never will again.
She an amazing woman and beautiful inside and out! She has a lot of class!
GORGEOUS, GORGEOUS, GORGEOUS. NATUAL IS ALWAYS THE BEST WAY TO GO, AND GIRL YOUR SHOWED THEM THAT THAT IS WHAT YOU HAVE. YOU GO GIRL!
She takes care of herself and the natural look shows it. She's gorgeous and had a great photographer.
she just looks delicious.....................................
I wonder if she's a "3 input girl"?
I would not give her a second look in thie appearence!
You think her daddy knows his little princess is "napalm in bed" and has his own dreams about her? Wonder if it runs in the family. Ashley, any comment?
She is beautiful with or with out and since she is more secure in who she is she has a inner beauty that shows and makes her even more beautiful. way to go jessica
Nice Rack!
I am 37 years old and have never in my life worn foundation or eyeliner and rarely do I wear lipstick or eyeshadow. I've never colored or straightened my naturally curly hair. I will never wear colored contacts or fake nails. I spend 5 to 10 minutes on my hair in the morning. All I wear is a little powder on my face and mascara. Guess what? My fiance has told me I am the most beautiful woman he has ever met. Too much fakery = ugliness. Not only that, it's hard to tell what the true woman looks like. I think Jessica looks stunning this way, with a "little bit of makeup" or not.
Beautiful.
It doesn't even look like her...
She looks WAAAY better than I do without makeup.
she's still very pretty. actually, prettier. not really a fan but kudos for shedding the blonde bombshell/airhead bimbo image and showing that natural beauty is best.
WHO CARES!!!
she is beautiful without the cake face
I wish I was her child so she could nurse me. I'd be in high school before she got me off those things! I'd even pull all my teeth out if she wanted!
As a male in his mid fourties I can tell you that a sincere smile adds more beauty to a woman than any make-up, clothing, plastic surgery or push-up bra! Appreciate what you have, don't dwell on what you don't, feel good and.... smile!
You go Jessica!!!!! Keep it real.....
I'd like to eat her. No, really.........I mean I want to EAT her.
Hey, she's cute alright, but any girl who's napalm in bed – swallows, buttplay, etc. – gets away with being "just normal" looking. She's a GOER!
She looks beautiful. Much better without makeup.
She looks good without makeup but better with it. Most people do!
Who really cares if she wears make-up or not. That is up to her but I think she should wear it.
I'd hit it.
I'd still hit it.......
What, no Proactive?
If she were really au naturale, she'd go back to her actual hair color.
I've always thought that she was pretty in a kind of made up "cover girl" way, but she is truly stunning in those pictures. A lot of the women in entertainment these days fall apart without makeup. It's very nice to see a woman famous for her looks go this route and be the better for it.
I would like to keep her chained in my basement 24-7. I'd wake up in the morning, go downstairs and look at her, feed her, maybe poke her with a stick, then go back upstairs and watch 3 Stooges. Later I'd go back down and make her slide up and down the neck of a Strat, then poke her with a stick again. Is it time for my meds yet?
Perfect – absolutely perfect
Thank you Jessica, great role modeling!!!!!
FINALLY!!!
the "trend" of seeing the real woman!!!!!!!!
I think she needs to be badonkadonked.
Ms. Simpson is a very attractive girl an looks even more beautiful au natural!
Wow, what a hottie! I think she looks great all sleazy. She has that"crazy look" to her, and you know what they say about crazy chicks.....I'll bet she bangs like a screen door in a hurricane! I'd marry her, stupid or not.
Beautiful! No make-up needed. She looks fantastic!
good for her, tired of seeing all the botox and anorexics, it's about time someone didn't bow to the tabloid calling them fat and taking their stabs! Ever see some of those dogs behind the camera? You go girl
what's the big deal.....I've done that everyday for the past 60 years......
She's still hot. Even hotter now.
Wow. How impressive... NOT!!!!!!!!!!!
Beautiful without all the make-up i was wondering when women would realize we are beautiful without all that "pancake mix" on our faces!!!!!
She's better looking without all the paint and retouching. Not even a contest.
Beautiful! More people should do that.
But she didn't shave her mustache..
nice boobs
Jessica Simpson has always looked great to me,so instead of criticizing her all the time, why don't wejust get used to having Jessica in our lives whether we like her or not?
Pretty, yes; talented, I don't think so. Why bother with makeup if you don't brush your teeth? That will stick with me for a long time. I am glad she is being more herself but wonder how long people will still think she is hot after she has told all her secrets!
Great job! Magazines need to promote "natural beauty". I grew up in the 80's...where make up was huge! I think this sends a great message to young girls!!!!
I think she looks wonderful especially in the inside shot. She's been freed from that Hollywood overly made up look. I hope when she gets older she'll avoid botox and the weird facelifts that make the women look like freaks from another planet.
make up off looks good, now keep those mommy jeans off, and all will be good.
Littlebill, in your dreams sweetie.
Bravoooooooooooo!!!!! It's about time we start rejoicing in our real women's beauty instead of the exploitive cosmetic corporations
junebug. bend over and I'll show you. Ah you already are..
Jessica is hot no matter with or without make-up. Any man would be lucky to have someone like her as there girlfriend or wife!!!!
Either look would be enough for people to turn their heads. In both pictures we see an attractive woman. That it is not incredibly obvious it is the same person is not a detriment to Ms. Simpson but rather to the culture that displays her to the public differently than she is.
I think Jessica is even more beautiful with no make-up
Good for her!! She is beautiful and goofy... She seems like such a down to earth person... People are rotten and should leave her alone!!
SOME OF U PEOPLE REALY NEED TO GET A LIFE...
Bigbill327....ew! And I'm thinking it's probably littlebill in reality.
Looks like Richard got up on the wrong side of the bed and can't handle a quote of wisdom containg 10 words from another human being other than himself.
Try "Being the change you wish to see in the world" instead of being an insecure bully that can only make negative comments from his thick skull!!
I hope you have a better day tomorrow Richard!
Cmon. Are you serious? I don't believe she has no makeup on. I don't know of anyone whose lashes look like that without mascara and her hair is covering up half her face anyways. Nice try.
Chad, we're not all beautiful. Look around, dude.
Mandi,
Girl you're not going to win with this crowd. And you are right. Some folks just want to fight. They need to get a life.
Finally, she doesn't look like a bimbo and has said something intelligent.
love it!! it's her naturally – so what's not to love!! we are ALL naturally beautiful!
Jessica Simpson is the best beauty money can buy from a plastic surgeon.
No woman needs to wear that crap. It's silly to see some woman walking around with a mask so thick that you could peel it off. It'sgross.
She looks marvelous. In fact, way better than all made up. I keep the natural look if I were her.
She is human, like me... like you... we are all different... we're all beautiful.
She's hot with or without makeup! Jessica – I'll never leave ya
she is truly beautiful, I am not a fan...but she is ready for children. Congrats to her for doing what most women will not do.
The second picture has been color graded; it has a green tone to the image. Compare the skin tones. People don't have matching green faces, hair and cardigans .. unless they are in an 80s goth tribute band maybe.
Not sure why they would write an article about photographs not being retouched and then retouch it so obviously !
SO much better! It still looks like she has eye makeup on, but all in all-much nicer than when she has all that bronzer and other junk on her face. Great look for her!

I think Jessica is beautiful and i think people who are complaining about whether or not she has make up on are missing the point. Her cover photo is very natural and unphotoshopped. She's tired of women having to live up to the standards that the industry has created causing women to have low self esteem. So many woman invest in plastic surgeons and tanning salons and weight loss gimmicks over and over again. Jess is simply saying that you're beautiful in your own skin. It doesnt matter how big you are, how tan you are, how young you look... if u feel beautiful in your own skin then that comes out in your personality. It doesnt matter how attractive someone is on the outside, if they dont like themselves on the inside then it doesnt really matter.
MEANT IF I PASS HER WITHOUT MAKE-UP I WOULD NOT RECOGNIZE HER
Idon't even know y u r all fighting, it's obvious the first pic is made up, the second pic is her WITHOUT make-up. she looks average without it, nothing special, just regular. Believe it or not, if i was to pass her on the street with the make-up I wouldn't recognize her. I like her and who cares if she wants to wear make-up or not, that's her business, if you dont like it, then dont wear it. Stop judging ppl and just get lives and keep it moving. With all that is going on, i'm appalled to know y'all fighting about how someone look with or without make-up. YIKES!
OOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH Mandi, I came and I came and you ate it..
why don't you learn to spell - its au naturel, not au naturale as you have it in your headline. no big surprise coming from an organization that thinks this is news.
I think she looks hot!!.........wouldn't put my face up on the public dart-board for nothing....just not a glutton for punishment!!!!!
Glad to see she is comfortable in her own skin .... nice message to send to women everywhere!
I think she is looks beautiful
Most women look more beautiful when less made up
wow, she's hotter without!
Mandi – Stop being a jealous porker. Eat some more pie and stfu
Jessica is actually cuter without makeup. Most naturally beautiful women are. Only the ugly ones need to hide their flaws with layers of cosmetics. Besides, I like the naturally – fresh out of, ahem, bed- look (if you know what I mean...)
My hair air dries similar to that – my sister and my daughter's hair does as well. If you have natural wave and relatively thick hair, you can get away with air drying and no styling. (Which is very convenient when you're not a morning person!) I can completely believe that Jessica's hair is air dried in the photos, because I do the same every day.
Unfortunately my eyelashes are so light that I have to wear mascara even when I'm not wearing any other makeup, or else you wouldn't even be able to tell that I have eyelashes. Sigh.
even without make up i would still do her. not to shabby for a has been.
Tell you what, allow me to spend a weekend, one on one with Jessica to study her natural look. Then, after that weekend, I'll get back to you on what I think of it.
Jessica is beautiful inside and out, and I do believe 100% that she is wearing no makeup. My granddaughter has hair like that, and it dries naturally just like Jessica's. A great deal of petty jealousy from insecure women who are unable to believe that any one could be beautiful without makeup, however I see it everyday and there is nothing like natural beauty. Jessica looks fantastic!
mandi..you are quite obviously a very insecure individual. It's amazing how you can sit there and be so incredibly negative regarding these pictures. Tell me mandi, are you a professional photographer? Professional make-up artist? Professional hair stylist? Just accept the fact that these pictures are 100% real..no fake hair products, no fake make-up, and STOP being so petty and condescending.
I have been a fan of Jessica for over 10 years! I think she look even more beautiful without makeup.
She looks way better without the make-up, so she would be fine with every day modest make-up like most women wear to work. That would get my attention more than the over-the-top show business paint job she usually wears.
This may sound like Joe Namath to Suzy Kolber, but "I'd like to kiss her"
Holy cats... I never thought she was attractive... now I'm smitten!
WHATEVER Traci. Try producing some of your own verbal knowledge,, if your thick skull has the ability.
Jessica is a gentle reminder of what all we woman should embrace and is the epitome of Phenomenal Woman by Maya Angelou! Jessica exterior is radiating the beauty within from the comfort she feels in her own skin that should be a lesson to all women around the world. Women . . . Love Yourself and don't feel bad about it! Women . . . Empower one another! Women . . . . we need one anothers support not the cattiness and jealousy for bestowing love internally. Reminder to all . . . "Let the beauty that we love be what we do." – Jalal ad-Din Rumi
Very beautiful woman inside and out.........I saw her Oprah interview and she was truly genuine.
A natural beauty.....
Denise from Fort Lauderdale is jealous
they should make special glasses that see through makeup. i see some of the ugliest girls with a pound of paint on their face, walking around like they are Hot S***. get over yourselves, you buy your "beauty" in aisle 5 at CVS. i think makeup should be outlawed so we can see what we're REALLY gonna be waking up to in the morning.
BEAUTIFUL! I look at my own daughter and I pray she realizes how beautiful she is inside and out and does not feel she has to wear make up to look "better" for other people. But it is not the case. If more women in the limelight would have this confidence, take this stance it really would help young women and older women feel more confident in their own skin. All you see in magazines, newspapers, commercials etc, is very thin, very made up women, and that is the "example" we as a society have set up for ourselves and our children. Shame on us all.
Seriously, the second picture of her is crazy hot. And all this time I thought she was this nasty fake thing. Put that picture on her next album, and I'll buy it regardless of the music.
Fabulous. I think she looks better without the war paint. I will buy the magazine to show my daughter!
it certainly looks like she isn't wearing any makeup....still absolutely gorgeous, though. you go girl!
Sadly, CNN and I have a very different opinion of what au naturel means
AwwwwwwwwL Right!.....................giggady.
it cool i think she looks alot better without all that bs on her face. she don't need it.
eh average and yes she needs makeup.
She looks great, very beautiful. i think she looks better without the makeup.
She looks better without makeup, more womanly, more herself than a caricature of someone else.
I think she looks great. However being a photographer, I know there is alot you can do with body positions and lighting to enhance good features, and de-emphasis bad ones. Not that she doesn't look natural, but those affect the outcome of the photo alot too ;O)
what is beauty really other than we as our own person defines as desireable and perfected? she is a very beautiful person to me but only because she fits the stereotypes that i have been taught to believe are beautiful as potrayed by the media tell me im wrong
I find it hard to believe that she isn't wearing ANY makeup at all... mostly because her eyes look really defined. Her skin tone looks great though, and if thats naturally her skin, good for her!!! I wish mine was that smooth!!
Her hair looks beautiful. My hair will air dry like that too but will frizz once i get outside... I love how soft it looks.
I love Jessica Simpson, she gets a lot of scruntiny in the press, but I think she's a kind person and really a natural beauty.
It's a little like splitting hairs to debate over whether or not she's wearing makeup in the photo. She's good looking to begin with; she's not risking anything. Actually, it's a little insulting for someone who is just straight-up, naturaully attractive to say "I don't care what people think of me." That's like someone who makes $1,000,000 per year saying "I'll drop my salary all the way down to $750,000. I can live like a poor person, too." Marie Claire, show some pictures of ugly people who do really good things for others, and have the balls to call them beautiful. It's a crock to have the "people are beautiful without make-up or retouching" movement when the people in question are already physically attractive. I have a sneaky suspiscion that if she were hideous without makeup, the number of positive comments about her would be much lower.
Sorry if this sounds like bashing, but I'm quite an ugly person and this article feels a bit pretentious. I can't believe that Jessica Simpson knows what it's like to be unattractive.
I read an article where she admits to never brushing her teeth. The just rubs whatever shirt or sweater she is wearing over them once every few days and uses mouthwash.
Thats disgusting. Im sure after an hour or so after the mouthwash, the stench from her mouth overpowers her beauty.
i think a woman is most beautiful when she wakes up and she rubs the sleep out of her eyes she has no make-up on yet she is still the most beautiful thing in the world jessica simpson is beautiful with make-up on so she must look absulutle amazing with out the make-up
She needs to go away. The only reason she's famous in the first place is because of her appearance. Trying to hold onto that last minute of fame is quite sad.
She defines the essence of beauty, inside and out. Still gorgeous without makeup. And if I was a blind man, I would love her for her personality.
wow she is sooo finee
What is with all the hair in her face?? Kind of defeats the purpose since you can't clearly see her face, it's pointless
DUH. The article states "Simpson will be featured on the cover of the magazine with air-dried hair, no makeup and no retouching."
ON THE COVER. That first picture (on the cover) she certainly DOES have make-up and touched up and nicely styled hair. The 2nd picture she doesn't. So is MC going to use the first or second pic for the cover?
Kudo's to Jessica Simpson...she is beautiful without all of the fluff...women do NOT need makeup and hairstylists to be pretty..more women should follow her lead...she is sending a message to young girls that they can be confident with the face they were born with!
Nice...
She's a beautiful lady. She needs no make up and she's turning out to be a valuable role model for all women. If she continues with decisions like this I will forget about the DUMB blonde thing that was her TV show with her idiot ex-husband.
Still gorgeous. I actually like the few extra pounds she has (minus the mommy pants). Great curves!
Check out her chin in both photos. This is not Jessica Simpson in the second shot. This is one feature that can't be changed with makeup.
She looks amazing. She definitely doesn't need makeup. I always love seeing woman without makeup, it makes me feel like I am seeing their true self then.
I’ve seen her without makeup and I think she is wearing some. Either way she is beautiful. I think many women wouldn’t bother much with make up if they looked like her. It’s nice to see celebrities without their masks on. Jessica definitely has a pretty face.
Jessican Simpson is beautiful inside and out.
Jessica Simpson is a natural beauty inside and out, because of the she is taken advantage of clowns like mayer and romo
"Natural Beauty".....doesn't get any better than that!
I think Jessica actually looks prettier without the makeup – a natural beauty for sure. I would be proud to call her my daughter.
She Looks Better Without All The Make-up...She Looks Like a Different Person, Very Hot Too....
Denise: Go eat yourself..
WOW! I like the natural look a lot, I mean a lot better!
A natural beauty. If i looked like that w/out makeup, i would never bother w/ it!!!!!! So jealous!
I actually think she is better looking in the without makeup photo! Besides, isn't it the person inside that matters most?
Don't you girls and guys have better things to do than insult each other?
She was quoted as saying "I don't have anything to prove anymore. What other people think of me is not my business."
Well if that's so, and you don't care what other people think, then why would you do a photo shoot for "Marie Claire magazine, the publication that women turn to for information on fashion, style, beauty, women's issues, careers, health, and relationships."?
If you're not out to prove anything, why expose your "un-retouched" photos to anyone, let alone a fashion mag?
How someone looks is simply one of the least important things about them. If Hitler had been good looking would it all have been OK? Are Mother Theresa or Ghandi less important because they weren't hotties? Should Stephen Hawking just go away beacuse he's not so easy on the eyes. Why do we want to keep living our lives like we're 12 years old? Grow up people.
jessica is a total hottie, while kardashian is a fat cow
Jessca can park her shoes by my bed anytime and i do not care what she has on .She is a perfect 10 in my book
damn she looks good with the make up
All of you need to get a life.
I think that is great to do. My wife is not a makeup person. She very rarely ever puts it on. I think she is beautiful just the way she is. I mean both my wife and Jessica Simpson.
Gorgeous!
I think Jessica is a beautiful woman. She is real with and without her flaws! She is a daughter a parent would be proud to say "I raised her"
I don't know whether or not either picture was taken and printed with or without some "re-touching". I'm not an expert. I just think it's about time we as a society start accepting women AND men for who they are – not who they can be made up to be. Real men and Real women have imperfect skin, normal noses, cellulite, and fat on bodies...time to wake up and see what REAL really means.
Okay, so granted she does not have to prove anything to anyone, however, these photos are not representative of what she looks like without makeup. Trust me, from a makeup artist perspective, they have "natural" looking makeup on her. Please people, don't think she looks like this waking up first thing in the morning....LOL.

I think she is beautiful with or without makeup. More celebrities need to follow in her footsteps and become better role models for the youth.
She looks as if she could be Renee Zellweger's younger sister!
I love it. I think Jessica and Kim are beautiful without all the makeup.
She should know her place is in the kitchen. The flour from baking is the only make-up she should wear.
SMOKIN HOT!!!! I'd tear that to shreds. Call me Jessica, I'm sure my wife wouldnt mind.
She looks like any other chick I see at the safeway or a bar. Not a big deal. Do a story on that Kesha chick without make up, I bet that's a make-or-break situation right there.
I would hit that over and over until one of us couldn't walk.
THIS IS FOR MANDI
I THINK YOU ARE A COMBINATION OF AND AIR HEAD AND A PIN HEAD. PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND LOOK UP THE MEANING OF THE WORD NATURAL.
WAY TO GO GIRL, SHOW THE WORLD WHO YOU REALLY ARE
DONT BE LIKE MOST OF THE OTHER CELEBRITY AIR HEADS WHO ARE AFRAID TO SHOW THEMSELVES, YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL
I'd have no problem waking up next to her. Yummy...
I really like her look without any make up. She is beautiful either way
I think it MIGHT be possible she has some mascara on in the cover picture but other than that I wouldn't say she looks like she has make up on. To an extent with pictures with flash you NEED make up because of the light or you'll look like a ghost.
As for her hair.. I wish my hair dried naturally like that.. I let mine dry naturally and it is frizz city D:
Anyway I never cared for her, her "music" or acting but I think it is great that she is making a stand for herself and resisting the non-realistic standards we have for beauty today.
that ain't simpson
She looks great. I saw a woman in the store with very little makeup on the other day and she was stunning. Some women got it and some don't. Jessica has it. Most women don't look that good no matter how much makeup or whatever they put on...
I think Jessica is beautiful, and does not have anything to be ashamed of. I think it's shameful that people think beauty comes from a bottle. Most normal women don't have time in the mornings to put on their face, and we face the world bare everyday, and I think we are all beautiful.
Wow pete you can just hear the gay in your comment. (Not that theres anything wrong with that) and she is so wearing makeup and looks pretty.
Shes hardly got any makeup on and shes got all her hair hiding her face!! lol now thats comical!
Cris, Nick and Jason, You guys are tools!
She looks awesome! Nothing more beautiful than natural beauty.
O please NO MAKEUP!!? lol Wash your face- then 30 seconds later snap a picture, then I'll believe it.
finally woman who may hold some sway over the young women in America are demonstrating that natural is beautiful. I hope the trend continues. I don't tend to pay much attention to models, as I consider the look fake and much prefer looking at and dealing with people as they are. And while I. of course, interact with highly competent, highly made up women everyday at work, and that choice is theirs, when it come to those I think look good (and admittedly looks are less important than competence in my job), I greatly prefer little or no make up, despite the self perceived 'flaws' that give character and uniqueness to a person's look.
I agree, just because youre not wearing eyeliner on the bottom of your eye and you glob different colored tinted moisturizers all over your face does not mean your going "au natural".
Hey, I'm NOT FAT: You're catty and immature. Grow up.
I have seen pictures of her without any make-up on and shes hella red n blotchy. She is wearing make-up all over her face...so I don't get this??
Right, what about all the plastic surgery? I guess she's not that "natural" after all...
She wearing less makeup but she still wearing makeup. u can see foundation blush mascara and eyeliner and lip gloss on in both pics come on now!
I think she still has a nose job and plastic boobs
I think she looks more beautiful without the makeup!
Is it illegal to propose marriage to a celebrity on CNN.com?
Just kidding. No really, just kidding...no really...
My absolutely beautiful 4 year old niece lost her first tooth just days ago. You could see she was glowing with pride in the fact she was getting to be a big girl and get her big girl teeth in. You couldnt hold her down she was floating. The next day after school, she came crying home because some girl at her school called her ugly because her tooth was missing. Ladies and Gentlemen, this concept of beauty is starting as early as 4 years old. Isnt it about time we stopped putting this kind of pressure one each other? My niece should be happy being who she is, and she shouldnt have to worry about what she looks like. Jessica Simpson is doing what makes her feel good. Putting on makeup makes some girls feel good. I know my best friend doesnt leave the house without putting on makeup. I on the other hand just put on mascara and lipgloss and I am good to go. The concept of beauty shouldnt be in one's appearance. But in one's actions and personality.
I know Jessica Simpson is a very good looking woman, but I didn't know she's way MORE better looking without makeup and all that garbage women put on their face. This is what I call natural beauty! Hollywood is full of sweet painted ladies, they only look good with makeup on, remove their warpaint, an ordinary woman with children looks better than those Hollywood Actress.
Jessica Simpson is not only beautiful on the face, her heart is beautiful. WTG!
TRANYYYYYYYYYY
lets face it ....jessica simpson is a tranny just like J.lo...
great paps!
Good Grief!! She is Human just like u all are. Jessica Simpson is one of the Hollywood Celebs who is down to Earth. This girl is beautiful with or without makeup. Research the chemicals in Make-up and after u research tell me u want all painted up or All-Natural. God Bless You Jessica.
I don't see what wearing makeup has to do with proving yourself. Jessica looks great without makeup as do most women and all guys. Clean, with shaved under arms and legs and your good to go out into the world and really prove yourselves with intelligence, humor and kindness.
She's really beautiful in photo #2. Jessica Simpson makes a lot of those other Hollywood girls look like boys!
She looks A1 for me
wow, she's actually more beautiful without makeup than with. She always looks a bit sleazy with that whole make up thing going, but wow, she's great looking without it.
She needs to be natural,no make up cos when to know a beautiful gal is when she doesn't make up. Go gal
Simpson is just so cute.
She is covering her face with her hair.
She looks like hell. Cameras make people look bad. Some people are beautiful in person and put them in a photo and instant down grade. What was her PR thinking? The poor girl is marketed to men. Jessica, comes over to Runway Magazine, we will put you in the right light at least.
Well God created us humans as he created nature........... you will always be as beautiful as natute itself........
Too bad there's nothin up in that noggin of hers.
In response to the post from bitbit, I did go to the MC Web site, and I think you are right about the cover not being in the same photo group. But the funny thing is, you can clearly see on one of those higher-res "natural" shots that the shadows have been cleaned up with Photoshop. So much for ethics in the beauty mag biz.
She says she doesn't have anything to prove. But the entertainment industry is the production of fantasy. If she wants to collect big bucks as an entertainer she should expect to provide the fantasy woman we expect. She is attractive in any case but, of course her hair is still dyed!
She's far from "natural," since she has bleached hair, veneered or capped teeth, probably enhanced boobs, carefully shaped eyebrows, and definitely some lip filler going on there. She starts out "improved" even before the other stuff. But I'll believe the no makeup thing for these shots. For the people obsessing over whether her hair is air-dried, the mag isn't claiming she didn't use hair product, and you can get that effect with salt water spray and some styling lotion. But as for no "retouching": no way. I'll accept that she wasn't photoshopped to the usual dgree, but I can't believe that they didn't at least do some digital softening and correction of lighting, etc. Especially on that brightly lit cover shot.
ooooh,my why is it that a big deal, its normal to go natural, come to africa women are ever natural with flawless skin and when you see that you will appreciate the real beauty, eat natural ,kip fit n thea you go
She looks beautiful..
She's as attractive as any airheaded, manufactured pop star with no talent can be.
Wish she would go "au natural"
Ugh....she's hideous!
On this cover, she is definitely wearing makeup. Check the internet for a higher resolution of this photo and your can clearly see it. I think they mean she's not wearing makeup on the interior magazine photo(s). However, I have seen photos of her without makeup on the internet, and she's still beautiful.
What about the hair. She's not a natural blonde. I've seen her naked.
who the hell cares?! people on magazine covers are all airbrushed with or without makeup anyway...what the hell does it matter........?! people are starving to death, being killed in needless wars and we care about whether Jessica f******g simpson is "au naturale' or not..!!!!!
so much better without anything.
But it is the makeup, hair, weight loss and everything else which has afforded her the opportunity to have anything to prove. Try this approach in life WITHOUT Jessica's millions and see how far you get. Possbily under a bridge or labeled some such other atrocity. Yea, it must be nice to not have to prove yourself anymore once you've proven you can wear that make up and ultra short daisy dukes as Simpson has.
Akeim, it is apparently you who lacks intelligence. If you had any savvy, you'd be fully aware that lackluster is one word, not two AND that she has a gazillion dollar shoe industry (for one). She IS successful. Funny though, I have never heard of the "artist" Akeim, am sure I never will and am even more sure I don't give one rip what said "artist" thinks.
She's not stupid – she's making huge deposits to her bank account every day for playing roles and selling shoes and singing songs you hate.
You are soooo tired of hearing about her yet you took the time to post SEVERAL times this evening? Yawn ... GET A LIFE ... Jess already has one and you impact it not.
Tell the truth: you work at Starbucks, dontcha?
Jibbler, are you serious? Since you brought up intellect, if she were "dumb" she would be unable to speak. If she were "stupid" she would not be a wealthy star. She has never been either "huge" or "fat" which further proves, to use your words, how dumb and stupid you are. Your "professional" opinion? GMAFB – what profession is that, dear? Good Lord – do you truly believe you are the benchmark for intelligence? If so, go take an English course and learn to properly express yourself. Until then, based on your own words, you really ought to pipe down.
Damn, I thought this meant she was going to do a Playboy spread. I was looking forward to feasting my eyes on those delicious ta-tas
No, the deception is she is naturally gorgeous! perfect features, no wrinkles, acne, great hair, etc. Why would she need make up? The rest of us who aren't fortunate enough to look like that do need it. So her going without it just doesn't seem like a huge deal to me. The spirit of the article should be to embrace ones flaws and for women to not be afraid to show that they have them- but in Jessica's case this doesn't really work
Jessica Simpson is pretty but overrated.
As one woman to another: How can her breasts be so big without stretchmarks?
What face? Did you see that second pic?
She is a good person and she looks great with or without makeup
you dont need alot of makeup to look good.
She looks like a homeless person in the second picture. I wouldn't be caught dead looking like that in public.
man shes gorgeous...
OMG! what a bunch of haters, excluding the nice posts of course. AND YEAH I KNOW ABOUT FREEDOM OF SPEECH, I am just saying that...why people have to hate everything. This world is so full of hate...it is so dissapointing. It seems like people can't find anything positive about anything anymore. She looks pretty! and I think the whole point is that you don't need 10,000 layers of makeup to look beautiful. People focus on the positive message, geez!!!!
I do not find her particularly attractive with or without makeup. She just does nothing for me. But I wish her all the best as a fellow human.
Good for you Jessica. Finally, a star that sends a positive message to children. In Hollywood it has always been about who you can be, not who you are. I have gained much respect for you as a person. You should be proud of yourself!!!!!
Good for her. This is what should be taught to the young women of today.... except don't go sao far that you don't shave your armpits and legs.
Too bad she couldn't be photographed without the fake breasts.
Makeup is really temporary plastic surgery or more fraud as to who and what you really look like and your values. Woman complain they want guys to be real so what is with the deception ladies?
Love, love, LOVE Jessica! She is beautiful inside and out. I hope people will stop picking on her eventually!! You go, girl!
She looks good natural. But I'd still prefer the "Daisy Duke" look. Giggity Giggity
beautiful!!!
airbrushed to perfection
She looks good to me.
More women should do it.
Face it ladies, Jessica without makeup is still hotter than 99% of you.
I can tell who's jealous here...my hair actually dries like hers, with more body though. It's called having "wavy hair." She's beautiful, get over it.
Say what you want about her personality or music...but this girl is drop dead gorgeous...dang...she is truly one fine specimen...she needs to reproduce and spread the love!
Is the second picture supposed to be her? Doesn't look anything like her.
You know, I used to think this chick was such a brainless bimbo, but I find myself gaining a new respect for her recently. She seems to have really come into her own as a woman and I like that she seems so comfortable with herself.....that's cool.
Good job Jessica. You look great.
To the person who said that........ "she looks like a mental patient in the pic with the off the shoulder tshirt and mussed hair"... You clearly have NO eye for art.....which is quite all right. Those of us who DO have the 'eye' can easily see how beautiful this picture really is.
Jessica looks great!
Marie, every fat girl would say "curves rule", don't feel badly for being no different. I hope that it's fat guys that you like because if you say you are a size 10, you are probably a 14. Don't take me wrong because you aren't obese, you probably aren't offensive to look at and you do still fit in one seat on an airplane, for now.
Wow....she looks really good without all of the junk on her face.
I'm not specifically a religious person but ... God generally does a nice job with female aesthetics. Women's obsession with makeup (and I include my wife) generally strikes me as just sad and laughable. Look at any "before" & "after" makeover and the results are almost universally... worse. No woman has ever rendered herself "hot" or "hotter" by smearing stuff on her face. What a waste of our precious time on earth! It it what it is, and you can't paint over it to any beneficial effect.
Jessica is a beautiful woman and she doesn't need to change anything. I'm a size 10 at 5 '5 and love my body! Curves rule!
Travis, there are definitely too many fat girls around. It's disgusting.
No makeup on a woman her age doesn't matter to me, but I prefer her 20 pounds lighter. There are too many pretty fat girls around now, but I have never been a "Chubby Chaser"anyway.
I would like to give her my own brand of makeup, I'll even apply it to her face.
She looks like she is comfortable. I like it.
She looks like Jennifer Jason Leigh without makeup, and I love Jennifer Jason Leigh! Yow-za!!
Good for her!!!! Finally, someone is happy in their skin. I can't believe how much makeup women use...especially on their eyes.
She is still young and can do this! She is a good looking girl and that is great she showed her natural beauty and seems to be maturing as a woman.
She is gowiing up.....we all do it – good for her...and I am really not a fan- always thought she was a joke....but ive been there.....i understand
I think she looks good going for the 'all natural' look. In BOTH pictures, she IS wearing makeup but very little makeup and that's okay. There's nothing wrong with wearing makeup as long as you know the right look for you. I think this is definitely the right look for her.
Good job Jessica
I would make her moan like a rusty door hinge.
I will agree she is very beautiful but this is not a natural photo. Mascara and eyeliner are clearly visable in both photos.
Kim Kardashian just underwent cellulite treatments on her reality show to get rid of her cellulite. So her saying I've got cellulite so what is a crock.
Jessica looks pretty good natural I think.
Madi.... I think you are hotter than Jessica!
I think she is HOT unmade. I am so bored with the glamor girlies because they hey reek of phony. Give me a fit and demure natural beauty to feast my eyes on. Jess is looking GOOD Very Good..
I got your back Jess..
-the Rampworm
uh...Doesn't EVERYONE look good with hair plastered across their face? She is BEAUTIFUL. it just would have been nice to see her without all that hair in her face, covering her cheeks, etc!
Her melonous bewbs are awe-inspiring and a tent has been pitched in my pantaloons.
Though I could give a crap about what J. Simpson says..does..eats..breathes.or even says..she's probably wearing a little something in this picture..but then again..so what. Some of the comments are knee slappers! Oh man! I gotta admit she does do a good job of wearing that haggard disheveled look all together.
Napalm in bed... I believe it now!
It's all subjective...
It really depends on if you're attracted to a flesh and blood woman or a plastic barbie doll.
DON'T CARE. WASHED-UP REALITY STARS, THIS IS YOUR FUTURE!
I THINK SHE'S BEAUTIFULL!!!!
She's wearing make up in both photos.
Cant really see her with all the hair in her face...
Oh and P.s. The whole reason she is doing this show (publicity stunt) is because she can not act, sing, or dance and she needs to get back into the public image, so let's do what everyone's doing.... A Reality Show...... That will get me back into the spot lite. People should realize once you've had your 15/30 min of fame, move on and do something else with your life. Your washed up in the Buiz!
If she is the representation of Beauty as many posters post- Then I am a Goddess. I wear hardly any make-up and I had once modeled. So, with out all the glam, she is someone that would walk past you and would not even have a second head turned back to look at her again. She is a classic poor girl next door. Most people are Star gazzed.
I think she looks darling. Reminiscent of the 70's care-free and naturally beautiful. I also think she looks young. A natural beauty indeed
I think she looks great
She is adorable without make-up. She looks much younger.
she looks fat and ugly!!!!!
She is an American beauty as all women should be.
She looks beautiful.
Not sure why my post didn't show up from yesterday....here is what I basically wrote:
I am not big into what celebrities do or anything........but this popped up on yahoo yesterday....in that 2nd picture she looks a lot like DJ Rap....(but only some pics of dj Rap).....not sure if anyone who reads these even know what DnB is....but I figured I would post this anyway and wondered if someone agrees.......maybe Miss Simpson and DJ Rap could do some DNB Tracks together!
Simpson-GO UNDERGROUND that would be great to see her do something completely DIFFERENT like that!
Alanis Moressette did a DnB track on a newer album.....it SOLD me on that album!
peace n bass
I think she looks average. I will admit that I could be biased on account of me having seen her shows and thus knowing she is dumb, so do not attack me. Maybe her being dumb and stupid makes her less attractive to me but that is just an opinion. I know she used to be huge fat for awhile but that does not impact my opinion. I would say, with my professional opinion that she is ok.
She actually looks better without the makeup. Like a "real" person.
She is gorgeous and I love the pictures.
I seriously wished I looked that good without makeup. I've quit wearing eye makeup a few years back, but still insist upon foundation to even out my blotchy skin tone. Good for her to reveal herself as she is...a beautiful woman.
She looks 100x's better in the 2nd picture.
Kudos to Jessica for her self-confidence and beauty. Even if she's not 100% without make-up she's pretty close. Jamie Lee Curtis was one of the first Hollywood stars to embrace her naturale self and appear on a cover sans make up and sent a wonderful message to women everywhere. Make-up, botox, plastic surgery, etc is nothing without inner beauty and confidence with one's self.
I wish that I looked that good without makeup!
I think Jessica Simpson is a very lovely young lady au naturel.
Just so you guys know.... I'm an artist...No print pictures anywhere that you see Go Un photoshopped or touched up...NOT ONE! I've seen the before after of some stars and let me tell you You'd be horrified if you saw what some folks really looked liked.
I'm tired of seeing her. OVER AND OVER AND OVER. Her music sucks the only reason anyone even paid attention to her was because she was with Nick and her lack of intellect ruined that. Her acting is lack luster. As a business woman she's about as smart as a rock being thrown at a brick wall...Ediable Make-up? Really?
She actually looks better. Don't know why people where makeup when they don't have to. One of the biggest scams going.
She is beautiful– and even more so for knowing she has "nothing to prove!" Go Jessica!
Air-dried–her hair could be air dried but that doesnt mean it wasnt curled or styled. Some women actually do have dark lower lashes-some even have eyeliner tattooed. I think she looks great-of course they are going to "style" her hair. I think what makes it natural is that it is minimal work done. Im sure they did face powder or other minimal touches because the picture still has to look like a photo shoot-not a snapshot off my camera-good lighting, no oily forehead shining, etc. I think it is brave for anyone to do it because they know they will be judged....like some of the people commenting. Even positive comments are still judgements....
Jessica Simpson: 'I don't have anything to prove'
If she didn't have anything to prove she would not have gone this far to prove she has nothing to prove. There has been pictures of her in the tabloids while she was out and those are less than appealing like the picture appearing now. I have met her before she was big, she played at a bar I bartended at; her skin is less than perfect and far from it. TO be Natural is to show the scars and skin damage from the sun in it's natural state.
That's my 2 cents.
I think Jessica looks more beautiful with no makeup. She should go out like this more often.
Jessica looks so much younger without makeup and so cute. Much better than all that makeup. What a refreshing trend. Let's all try it. au natural.
She is so much more gorgeous WITHOUT all the makeup!!!! WOW. Beautiful!!!
Good for Jessica! She gets an "A" for effort.
First of all, MAKEUP is highly overrated.
The industry does NOT care about women's health. It's a BILLION dollar business. Every make-up and beauty product is DESIGN and CREATED for the almighty DOLLAR!!! Bottom line. They don't care if their product works, all they care about is that it sells!!
Women need to STOP buying all the garbage they keep putting on their faces to STOP God's aging process. Majority of the products are UNHEALTHY for you to begin with anyways, READ THE LABLE lades!!
It does not matter if you pay $5.00 or $500.00 an ounce it will NOT prevent you from aging. I don't understand WHY women think it does.
I ment Less like a Barbie
I would not consider myself a fan but I think Jessica looks better all natural she looks lees like a Barbie doll and like the pretty woman she is.
Mandi
she has a touch of make up on and I think she looks just great . Like it better thenalmost all of her stuff . You go girl woot woot
Tara- I'd say she's wearing make-up in both pictures, but i think most people are referring to the first.
She looks great without makeup! More beautiful than ever!!
Bradley- all i have to say to that last part is hahahahahahahaha.
She's breath taking. Should never put make up on again.
Okay.. so I'm confused... is the top picture the one everyones talking about or the second one?? I think she has makeup on in the first photo but the second she looks natural... and that pout she's making is really awkward... sorry
I THINK SHE LOOKS AWESOME, SHE IS NATURALLY BEAUTIFUL AND GOOD FOR HER FOR LOVING HERSELF FOR WHO SHE IS AND NOT JUST WHAT SHE LOOKS LIKE!
Wow, and she's so much more attractive without her makeup and airbrushing! Good on ya.
most of us can be made to look a lot better with a nice camera angle and the right lighting. and this "totally natural photo" was probably the best of hundreds taken to get this shot.
That said – I think that seeing her in person with some life and animation in her face would probably be quite different from both her airbrushed photos and this advantageous one.
@ Mandi...I'm not the magazine editor. It wasn't my decision to use that photo. I would have made the same decision as the editor did, though. You want to get people to buy the mag, so you don't put the make-up free pic on the cover. Regardless, I think the reason she's going with a more natural look is because Adam Lambert stole her make-up kit.
jessica is jus pure natural give her a break would like to c more people doin it
In this picture with the disheveled hair and her sweater off the shoulder she looks like a mental patient.
Michael- It doesn't matter. Not at all. I think the only thing that's a little annoying to people is that the magazine/Jessica is making a big stink about the fact that she's not wearing any makeup at all when she clearly is. Maybe they just shouldn't have said anything.
Chill out people. What's it matter? She looks good. period. If she has eye liner on or not, what's it matter. She's not made up like a circus clown. Most women don't go out of the house to grab a gallon a milk without full make up on, and she's on a magazine cover with just a little eye liner on the bottom of her eyes? LOL She looks good with hardly any make up on.
@Bradley- The cover says, "no makeup, no retouching, no regrets." If that's their angle, they shouldn't have used makeup at ALL. Even on the cover. That being said though, she absolutely does look great.
she is pretty hot, i would like some of that napalm please
Really very pretty without the makeup. I agree with a couple of posts here though as her bottom lash area IS rather dark for no makeup. Just compare the 2 images
Amazing. She has that kind of fair, Scandinavian beauty that almost hides under makeup. This is by far the most beautiful pic I've ever seen of her. I wish more women would realize they don't have to spray paint themselves to be beautiful. I love that almost every comment here is in support of the natural look!
still hot and an awesome rack
I've always liked Jessica and now even more. She's a hellava women.
That's the way real women should look. "REAL".
She never looked more beautiful.
Oh, and as for whether she is wearing make-up or not. The cover shot is different for the interior pics. Yeah, she's got a bit of polish on the cover, but not like her normal over-done appearance. It is the cover pic, after all. The inside shots are the au natural ones. Come on people, figure it out.
stunning
Wow. She is more beautiful in those pictures than any 'tarted up' shots ever taken. I've never been big on blondes, but that shot with the braid in her hair? That is true beauty. Jessica, please stay away from the make-up!
The second photo looks nothing like her and if it is her – she's a pretty girl w/o the make-up.
What a wonderful, brave, courageous, comfortable in her own skin woman who has come of age and knows what real beauty is about. Here's to beauty from the inside out! You look great Jessica. Adda Girl!
Um... she DOES have on eye makeup. Why'd they do that? She has on a thick coat of mascara. She's still pretty. Her boobs look HUGE. Did she forget her bra?
It's clear she is wearing make up, and I'm sure she had some professional help with her look. That said, it is very toned down, and what most people would call a "natural look." She looks very pretty, and I prefer it to her usual look. She clearly has natural beauty.
Jessica is a bad chick.
wow...you guys seem to prove the point they are trying to make – you shouldn't judge people based on how they look.
Maybe I like to wear makeup. Last I checked this country is still free, for now anyway...
Sorry but I don't believe she has absolutely NO make-up on. You can plainly see liner on inside of her lower eye. I'm sure she has some mascara and blush on too. Maybe a tad of lip color too. Regardless she's pretty with or without make-up. I'd like to look that good with "no" make-up on. Good for you Jessica for trying to be a role model for young girls and break society's outlook on beauty.
Love the concept – but dislike the deception. She has on makeup. Give me a break.
We're off to see the wizard!
If aliens landed on our planet and looked at our culture they'd wonder why women looks like circus clowns. My niece is in the fashion industry and for God's sake wears more make-up and fake lashes than a runway model... and the sad part is, she thinks she looks good! It's horrible that today's contemporary females are BRAINWASHED into thinking that you have to look beautiful.
You look great in that picture Jessica... a completely different woman. Now all you need is a brain.
so so re-touched!! there is no way that picture is "untouched"
natural makeup and not to mention lots of lighting makes a HUGE difference. have you not seen Oprah.....when she is on location with the same amount of makeipshe looks bad because she ain't got the studio lighting which makes wonders....
i think that she is beautiful no matter what but why are we placing such importance on the fact that she is wearing no makeup hundreds of women do that everyday me included and i dont get extra props
Yeah! Good grief Charlie Brown...
"Shes still hotter than you GIRLY GIRL / Mandi."
Yeah. And she's totally hotter than you even though this is the internet and there's no way I can see you... I'm just gonna throw out some ridiculous and rude statement because I have nothing better to do. Good grief.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>i am NOT FAT
Why the heck am I laughing at your horrible tasteless comments?? Actually I am LMAO!
girly girl... you're right. i'm not even saying she looks bad, i'm just never going to believe her face is bare. plus no one is COMPELTELY natural anymore... girls get highlights, wax stuff, tan, etc. it's not a bad thing, but everyone does a little something extra in the name of beauty.
I think she is beautiful without all the makeup, I think she should stop wearing makeup all together. The world would be a better place if everyone had the courage that Jessica has shown, to show your true self and to not worry what everyone else thinks. Jessica your a knockout without the makeup, don't ever put it back on. I honestly think you would be happier that way.
Shes still hotter than you GIRLY GIRL / Mandi.
I'm old enogh to be her grandmama and I am extremely proud of her and her show. The picture sans enhancement is wonderful
@I am NOT FAT- settle down please. i didn't say anything negative- only that i believed she was wearing a least a LITTLE makeup and maybe wearing some hair product. geez. such harsh words for someone you dont even know. imagine if i had actually said something cruel to begin with! yikes.
mandi ,, dont apologize ,, you were right the first time - shes made up to look natural ,, just the blonde pieces falling just right around her made up face - good golly people, how can you be so gullible?
She's still wearing false eyelashes, and her face is covered by her hair. I'm not impressed.
i did see the second picture, but i was definitely basing my comments on the first picture. just saying... sometimes it takes a lot of make-up to get a great "natural" look
. either way, she looks great!
cynic? no realist she doesnt have those eyebrows, nor the eyeliner, nor that color lips - nor did her hair just dry that way - please!!! better to say nothing than tell such lies if she is beautiful naturally, you sure can't tell it from that made up shot!
Wow–I definitely prefer her this way. Natural is beautiful!
i can believe that's how her hair naturally dried. my hair looks about like that when it air dries. i think she looks great.
you go, jessica! 
good for u!
mandi- maybe you didnt scroll down and see the second picture. how could you even question if she was wearing any makeup? its so clear she isn't. cynic...think ya hit the nail on the head calling yourself that!
She has a great mouth. She's definitely hot.
Jessica looks amazing. I am very impressed with her courage to display herself like that without any makeup. It is an essential thing for almost every woman, so it appears she finally has the courage to be who she is. I am very impressed and happy for her. She is a beautiful woman!
She is beautiful! She doesn't need make up!
how is her bottom lash line that dark with no makeup? aaaand i dont believe her hair naturally dried like that. im a cynic i guess.
I saw her in person in Vegas, she was at the salon when I was there. She is beautiful, doesn't matter if you like her or not. She is beautiful.
She doesn't need to wear all that crap – naturally gorgeous. You go, girl!
The beauty within is what counts the most - she looks great . She should not have to prove herself to anyone. Peace
jessica is beautiful with or without make up.....and a good person...
